Podcast appearances and mentions of ian o'dwyer

This episode is part two of my immensely enjoyable conversation with the wizard of OZ himself, Ian O'Dwyer. Ian is the director and founder of OD on Movement, he co-founded feel SOMA with his good friend Rodney Corn, and he is also the co-founder of PTA global. Through every step of his journey he has questioned what was considered “normal” in training, and worked to find a better way to achieve optimal health, wellbeing, and pain free movement for his clients. Ian has taken his passion for helping clients move and feel better around the world by presenting over 500 workshops at some of the top fitness facilities and conferences around. During this episode, Ian continues to share his thoughts on how to create better relationships with clients through empowerment, how to look at the human being and not just the human body when training, as well as how to utilize play in training to optimize outcomes. If you haven't listened to part one, press pause, hope back, and listen to that episode first. Enjoy, and I'll see you on the other side.

Welcome back to the State of the Industry Podcast. It is so great to be back from my short recording hiatus. My wife and I recently got a new puppy, so I have taken charge of puppy training and it has proven to be a full-time job. Anyone who has ever had a puppy before knows what I'm talking about. But we're back this week with a doozy of an episode. I have an old friend from the great land of Oz joining me for the next two weeks, Ian O'Dwyer. I met Ian when I was over at the FILEX conference in Sydney several years ago. It was evident from the start that he thought about movement in an unconventional way. He has a unique perspective on how the body moves and how different types of tissues interact during movement. Ian is the director and founder of OD on Movement, a company with a passion for empowering clients to move and feel better. He is also a co-founder of SOMA (self-osteo myofascial application) along with his good friend and colleague, Rodney Corn. SOMA provides education to help trainers and health professionals around the world help clients move, feel, and live better by enhancing the quality and performance of all the body tissues. In his journey, he has delivered over 500 workshops at some of the top fitness facilities and conferences around the world. During these next two episodes, Ian shares his thoughts on how to create better relationships with clients through empowerment, how to look at the human being and not just the human body when training, as well as how to utilize play in training to optimize outcomes. Open your brain tank, and I'll see you on the other side.

What if I told you that emotion gets trapped in the tissues of our bodies? That motion and emotion are so tightly intertwined that you simply can not change one without changing the other? Well... I'm not here to tell you that at all. My guest is. OD (Ian O'Dwyer) is one of the most forward-thinking and utterly brilliant minds that has rolled out of the fitness industry and we are extremely fortunate to house him right here, by our sides, in Australia. As a practitioner, an educator, a mentor and a founder of PTA Global you would likely be familiar with him from Industry Summits and Events such as Filex. OD's concepts, ideas and practices around human movement and the relationship between motion and e-motion are what can only be considered as being light years ahead of what we are taught by the majority in this industry today. He is all about PLAY & FUN and mark my words, what you are about to hear today is going to change everything you know about the ideas we have tightly wrapped around fitness, human movement, bodies, sport, recovery and well... life. I thrive on conversations like this and to say it brings me joy to introduce these concepts to whoevers ears this lands in is an understatement. Thanks for listening... and ENJOY!
